I prime and then two coats of exterior latex paint.
Two coats here. I believe if you check with the paint manufactures the only reason to paint with primer for the filler coat is the fact that primer is cheaper than the top cot paint.
thats why i buy the mis-tints (oops paint) or the city has a paint recycling center if i want to brave portland.
Two coats of boiled linseed oil.
What ever's free at a yard sale !

Just a couple of coats of exterior mis-tints from the local stores. The mis-tints are cheap, usually $5 a gallon or $3 for a quart. The different colors help to break up the monotony :rainbowflower: and liven up the bee yard, which also happens to be my garden of serenity.
